Re: A Great Mexicali ?????? Yes !!! |
I've always liked the one on Dick's Pick 11, Stanley Theater 1972-09-27.
The following link will take you to a Mr Blotto show which I reviewed earlier this year, which was the release party for their "Barlow Shanghai" album.
The album was co-written with John Barlow, and the live show had them play a slow version of Mexicali Blues. When they finished the song Barlow, who was there for the party, said:
"That's the first time ever since I wrote that song back in 1971 that anyone ever played it right"

Re: A Great Mexicali ?????? Yes !!! |
Well,
Jack Straw starts out strong, Jerome’s picking on “Jack o Roe” is profound, definitely an "energy" in the air this particularly fine evening.
Nak CM-300's are relatively pedestrian microphones but the location of the taper in the room this evening is proper.
Thanks for the shove in the > right direction!

Holy slowed down rendition Batman!
Trying to decide if I like it or not... It certainly is different.

Re: A Great Mexicali ?????? Yes !!! |
1/15/79 - Not bad - Jerry's shredding on "Mexicali", too bad Keith apparantly took the day off. I always enjoy a good piano solo on the song, especially during the Hornsby era.
Is it just me, or does Bobby sing "We used to play for silver, now we play for Clive" on Jack Straw? A subtle dig at Arista, perhaps?
